Think Outside the Chocolate Box
You don’t have to be a master of creativity or romance to come up with a great idea for a less conventional Valentine’s Day gift. Consider a piece of vintage costume jewelry, then have it engraved at a local jeweler for a low cost. Visit Etsy to search for handmade jewelry or other items. This “Lover Letter Bird Sparrow” locket necklace would make a perfect gift, as would this gold-plated “Love Birds” customized initial necklace.
Want to toast your loving relationship? Pick up a bottle of organic or biodynamic wine or organic champagne.
If you want to make something yourself, consider some simple bath salts or a pain-relieving massage with this homemade herbal muscle rub (get seven ideas for handmade gifts). If your love is a nature lover, make one of these simple homemade terrariums. If food is the way to your sweetie’s heart, try whipping up a batch of these handmade truffles (free of refined sugar!) or homemade candy hearts.
